Literally like an hour ago Turtle Man invoked Rule 19 on Senator Warren cause she was reading a letter from Coretta Scott King about her opposition to Jeff Sessions (who will be voted on tomorrow). McConnell told Senator Warren to sit down and be quiet. Republicans voted that Senator Warren has "impugned" a Senator, which means she can no longer talk about Jeff Sessions on the Senate floor.

I think once the DNC chair is elected we'll start seeing contenders for the midterms. we need to remind people that yes, the ACLU is important, but we will need to pour a lot of time and money into campaigning to get the republicans the hell out of office

yeah tho I really don't get why they use the Hebrew calendar as their basis?? I asked a rabbi if the year being 5777 meant we believe the earth is only that old -shrug- it's arbitrary, the calendar had to start /sometime/, so why not 5777 years ago. then went on about the fossil record. whereas one of my friends went to a church where the pastor fervently believed that the earth was ~6000 years old "bc the Jewish calendar" and it's just like, don't pin this shit on us. this is some batcrap evangelical timeline I don't want to be any part of.
